TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Upper Limb A1 - Sonne, James W.H. Y1 - 2020 N1 - T2 - Photographic Dissector for Students of Physical Therapy: A Step-by-Step Approach AB - The scapular and pectoral regions form the attachments of the upper limb to the axial skeleton. The only traditional articulation for the upper limbs is between the clavicle and the manubrium of the sternum. For this reason, forces exerted on the upper limb are sent through the clavicle, leaving the clavicle especially susceptible to fractures, usually from falls in which an individual extends their arm to brace themselves.
